A majority of brokerage firms are similar to IBKR in that we both clear through a bank. Because of this, you would be unable to connect the two brokerage accounts via ACH.
If you want to transfer funds and cannot use ACH, you can have the firm send us a wire transfer. You can obtain wire instructions by completing a wire deposit notification:
- Log in to Client Portal
- Select the Transfer & Pay menu followed by Transfer Funds and then Deposit Funds
- Select the currency
- Click the Get Instructions button next to Bank Wire
- Provide requested information and follow on screen prompts.
